Flow Test Screen (Prime Mode)
This is the screen that allows the operator to control the
flow test. It has a menu across the bottom of the screen
that changes to reflect the progress of the active test.
When this screen is first displayed the operator will be
prompted to prime the channel. This is essential to
ensure the measuring circuit is filled with fluid.
Prime
This prompt stays on the screen while there is any air in
the measuring circuit. Pressing ENTER while the
prompt displays PRIME will not have any effect. As
the circuit is primed, the prompt will change to
START. There may be some flickering between
PRIME and START as bubbles are pushed through the
system.
Status
This option takes you back to the main status screen.
You may need to do this if you need to set-up more than
one channel.
ESC
Selecting ESC or pressing the ESC key on the external
keyboard will take the operator back to the CHANNEL
SETUP menu.
Flow Test Screen (Start Mode)
Auto-Start
Pressing ENTER on this option puts the IDA-4 Plus
into AutoSTART mode. The prompt will flash until the
instrument detects that the fluid is flowing, then start
the test.
Start
To manually start the test, move to the START
selection and press ENTER. The IDA-4 Plus will
immediately start analyzing the fluid flow once this is
done.
Status
This will invoke the STATUS ALL CHANNELS
screen.
ESC
Selecting ESC or pressing the ESC key on the external
keyboard will take the operator back to the CHANNEL
